We have recently begun to use a Windows 10 VM on our ESXi-5.1.0-799733 system (yes, I know it's old).
Network file transfers from that VM often have errors in them that are not reported in any way we can find, but which result in corrupted copies. Also, sometimes there are long pauses in file transfers.
We are using the latest VMware tools (Version 10).
On a hunch, I changed the network adapter type from E1000e to VMXNET3.
This seems to work much better, and in fact has not had an error.
I can find no suggestion that E1000e might have a problem in Windows 10.
Does Windows 10 have known problems with this configuration?
